“I took this this morning in a car park. I was struck by the striking contrast and then noticed the sign saying 'Danger Of Death' which is enhanced by the ghostly trees. Pretty much a straight image but put a bit of texture on it to bring out the textures already there. I'm not sure what to think about this image so put it here for comments. ”

“Wandering around a very grey wet day in Brixham last week and this image seemed to be the only source of any colour, I was intially taken by the shape of this blue boat against the grey water then noticed the young gull perched at the front. I've cloned out a few of the distracting reflections in the water and the mooring rope to the rear to emphasis the boat more and also toned down the orange of the lifebuoys along with a slight vignette to draw the viewer in.Rob”

“I took this photo in Tewkesbury Abbey last month. I think the two chaps make an interesting pair. They seem to be having an important, maybe profound, conversation. I feel the lectern is an important part of the image, giving a context with the man on the right looking at it. Because of I don’t know the men so because of privacy I don’t think I will show it publicly.Can anyone think of a better title?”

“For me, the picture is not the boat in the water, but the juxtaposition of the wooden, colourful, ship's rigging and crow's nest, against the 4 metallic, angular, grey cranes. Cropping to just above the boats deck would emphasise that, you could also then crop off the yellow and pale blue of the buildings on the left.Cheers, Des :-)”

The man in red has a good space to the left edge, but the people top and bottom are too close to the edge for me.I think it would work better if the chap at the bottom was in the right hand bottom corner, as this area is a bit empty while the left hand side is a bit too cramped.I do like the angle though and like that nothing is square and there's a reasonable amount of the gray paving chopped off.Cheers, Des :-)”

“The problem for me is having mentioned the Constable painting, I had a quick look to remind me. While you may well have captured to scene accurately, Constable used to opportunity to present it differently. You might try to reduce the saturation of the greens and increase the saturation of other colours a little and it will have more impact. I think that you also need more of a focal point than the duck, perhaps a hay wain or?Dave”

“Be interested in your thoughts on this image, I'm not sure if it works or not. It was taken along the Walsall Canal on a cold and very gray day, I had some time to kill so armed with the camera I took a walk down this stretch of basically very run down industrial wasteland. Given the subject matter I set the camera to monochrome and took a series of images documenting the area, I was drawn to this particular shot with the three people walking the dog which added that bit of human interest.If your interested the rest of the series can be seen on my portfolio page at :https://robbullingham.myportfolio.com/2025-01-12-walsall-canalCheersRob”

“I do like this, but before reading any comments I thought -'the ladder has to go', if you crop to just inside the ladder it eleminates most of the tarmac, and what's left is fine for me. I would like a sliver added on to the bottom to complete the first flower pot, and if possible to put the brown edging/step right into the corner. You could probably do with a tiny bit added on to the top to give the first set of chimneys some room, and clone out the first aerial.It is a very pleasing image.Cheers, Des :-)”

“This is lovely, I think a little crop off the bottom so that the big builder is just seated, and a crop on the right so that the boulder in the water still has water flowing round it (and the bushy tree well above it is not cropped off), would emphasise a curve from big boulder, granite boulder, sea boulder, then round the headland to the tree. This also has the benefit of removing the bland rock at the bottom right.Cheers, Des :-)”

“Very glad to have given you inspiration :-) The sky is not helping, but as you say you're close so can wait for a better day. I'm not convinced by the composition though, I think a judge would say it's two images, a tree and a building - but there may be a better angle where there's much more of one than the other, e.g. show a letterbox of the bulding with a small section of the tree. I think the building looks like it's leaning back so needs the vertical tool to sort it out.Cheers, Des :-)”

“Yes I agree you need all the figures in. I really like the concept of this image and mono seems to work. To me although it is important for the hat to jump out and be the whitest thing I feel the background is too bright and the statues not bright enough, maybe this was just the light on the day. There just seems to be something in need of adjustments in the range of tones here. But my advice is to persist with this picture as I think it is very well seen and that hat brings the statues to life in my view. ”

“This is a recent shot taken 10 minutes' walk from my house, I saw this scene on a walk and came back with my camera to capture it. I have put it here as I'm really unbiased as to whether it works or not, so all comments welcome!I was initially drawn to the image because I liked the colour and shape of the tree and the contrast with the building. The way I have framed the building is inspired by Des's photo last month. Unfortunately the weather was so poor that I did not manage to get the shot with an interesting sky before the leaves began to look less impressive so I did what I could. However, with hindsight a sunny day may have caused unwanted reflections on the building behind so maybe the overcast weather helped. ”

For a quick fix you could try just picking up the darker grey colour from the surround and painting it in at around 5-10% with a soft brush and see what it looks like. Then do more, or less and see what you think.David”

David Adamson made a comment on Forgotten Writings Updated Version 5 months 3 weeks ago
“I don't know why, but it's the 'colour' of their shirts that doesn't quite gel for me, I want them to be darker or just more contrasty as I keep getting drawn to their dark trousers. I would also crop off the crests at the top (unless you've got a bit more of the rightmost one - when I'd rotate to get them all sitting at the same height). Actually, if you crop to just below the collars of the hanging shirts (so there's no white showing), it really emphasises the four guys and the shirts behind.”
Des Ward made a comment on Programme Notes 5 months 3 weeks ago
“I'm not sure about the feathers clipping the moon, it looks accidental rather than on purpose to me. I've never really seen the 'man in the moon', but you could probably darken some of the crater areas to add a bit of contrast and possibly give the impression of the man in the moon looking at the owl?”
Des Ward made a comment on Rond 9 - Fly Me To The Moon 5 months 3 weeks ago
“For me, the light fall off is a little too harsh. It looks like a still life so you should have full control of the light (I can see from the comments that you didn't) but a judge wouldn't know that. There's also a blue edge to the shadow at the bottom which looks a little strange. I think it's also missing a compelling point of interest - a skull anyone?”
Des Ward made a comment on 2024 Round 9 - Forgotten Writings 5 months 3 weeks ago
“I agree with what's been said, I do like the movement in the sticks, and it might be heaps better if you could sympathetically darken down the posters (especially the leftmost one).”

“This is great, I've tried this over Tewkesbury abbey but not got anything nearly this good. I'm not sure about the black and white cathedral - i think it could do with warming up to complement the light coming from the moon.”
Des Ward made a comment on 2024 Round 9 - Try for the Moon 5 months 3 weeks ago
“Very pleasing image, I'm not bothered by the background, but the lighter bark at bottom left keeps drawing my eye, so I would look at darkening that down a tad. I like the composition, but you could crop some off the top to put the right hand ear nearer the top right corner.”
Des Ward made a comment on Round 9 Jelly Ear fungi 5 months 3 weeks ago
“An interesting grouping. I found some of this in Queen's Wood near Southam. I was looking low down for any fungai then suddenly the Jelly Fungus at eye level. Not sure I could suggest nay improvement though the colours seem a little over saturated.”
Dave Hyett made a comment on Round 9 Jelly Ear fungi 5 months 3 weeks ago
“Interesting photo, I like the contrasts of bark, fungi and lichen. The background does draw my attention but sometimes with nature there is little you can do about it I suppose. ”
Saul Scott made a comment on Round 9 Jelly Ear fungi 5 months 3 weeks ago
“This photo of Jelly Ears fungi (I think) was taken at Slimbridge. The background on the right was quite bright which I have tried to tone down. I cropped it slightly to remove a small bright patch on the top left side.”
David Haigh made a comment on Round 9 Jelly Ear fungi 5 months 3 weeks ago
“The more I look at this image the more I like it the bold colour with the single window to the left and the converging pattern of windows to the right leading you out of the image. The only thing that detracts my eye is that the start of the second row of windows has been cropped at the top .Well Spotted.”
Rob Bullingham made a comment on Round 9 - Perspective 5 months 3 weeks ago
“A great snapshot documenting the life in the changing rooms, personally I haven't any issues with there being four of them, it kind of complements the six shirts hanging up behind them.”
Rob Bullingham made a comment on Programme Notes 5 months 3 weeks ago
“I really like the concept of this image and the position of the owls tail feathers just clipping the moon, in my opinion, is just right, I would agree that the owl could be darkened down slightly and maybe in this context the moon could be a brighter white, and finally a square crop.”
Rob Bullingham made a comment on Rond 9 - Fly Me To The Moon 5 months 3 weeks ago
“A great still life image with the focus on the clip board adding to that sense of mystery of what they were doing and the details in the shadows seems to add to the story, as for the colours I personally think they are OK and more natural as they are.”
Rob Bullingham made a comment on 2024 Round 9 - Forgotten Writings 5 months 3 weeks ago
“I'm with the same thought as the others, great subject, well taken but its just the posters on the wall and tricky to clone out and maintain the shadow, could they be blured out somehow without looking to false?”

“I agree with John's comments. As I play the drums myself, I am generally drawn to good photos of musicians. Nice colours as well as pose here. Yes the artwork is distracting, but it may tell the story of where he is, most likely as far as I can see he is either at home or in a venue that is not necessarily dedicated to music. ”
Saul Scott made a comment on 2024 Round 9 - The Drummer 5 months 3 weeks ago
“Good expression, nice blur shows the movement of the sticks. However, and you can do little about it other than shoot from another angle, I do find the artwork behind him is distracting.”

“Dave...you've put your finger on one of my concerns. This was a genuine candid, shot as it happened. But I worry that it looks set up, and maybe a bit odd? My other concern is that there are four of them, when odd numbers of subjects are usually more appealing. Though that didn't do The Beatles any harm, so maybe I shouldn't be worried.”

“I would like to see more of it. For architecture, we are often encourage to try to compensate for perspective by "correcting" in PS or by using a Tilt & Shift lens but I often prefer to just blatently show the non-parallel lines as we see them which can then emphasise the height, shape or design of the building. ”

“I captured the moon a few nights ago and have a more serious plan for this but thought I would just construct something for the critique group. If this was to be entered in a competition, it would have to be Open or Creative. Even so, it would be good to hear how it could be improved. While I did not want a silhouette, it might be improved if the Owl was much darker. Dave”

“An interesting project, John. I quite like it. I like the way it is sort of symmetrical but also isn't. Maybe it is cropped a bit close at the top and bottom but sometimes this is unavoidable. I like the poses. There was probably a lot going on so well captured. Above all, it tells a story. ”

“My new project is behind the scenes at Bishop's Cleeve FC. My first day shooting coincided with the biggest victory in their 120-year history, when they knocked Torquay Utd out of the FA Cup. I have great access and got some great shots. This shows some of the players studying the programme in the dressing room before the game. I have some reservations about it as part of a documentary project, which is why I am posting it here and welcome comments.”

“Quite right in my opinion, the silhouette in B&W with the blank sky is impactful. 14mm definitely adds a different perspective. It has a timeless feel.

“This shot was taken at the Tough Mudder event at Badminton last week. This is the final obstacle and called Electric Therapy. The tapes hanging down have an electric potential and the contestants forced to go through water. I understand it is 10,000 volts but limited to very low current. Some contestants say it is like being flicked with an elastic band right next to your skin. It is initially painful but does not last. Those with heart conditions are encouraged to bypass it and anyone can choose to bypass without a penalty. Dave”

I did try bringing up the shadows but felt it looked a bit false and not as I remembered the scene, be interested in your thoughts.Taken at 160th / F9 with 1000 iso with a few light tweaks in LR to minimise the noise and darken down some of the bright clouds.CheersRob”

I know Andrew has had lots of success with this sort of thing, but it always leaves me wondering why.I do like the position of the man and the way he's looking in the direction of the barn, but he also doesn't seem well grounded somehow. Compositionally I think it works well, but there's a dark area in the top right and a dark vertical line top left (probably a tree) both of which are out of keeping with rest.Cheers, Des :-)”

“A good shot, but it's not got enough action for an action shot, and i think the overlaps detract from it being a pattern or artistic shot. As you are going for the different angles on the planes I think it would benefit from a good crop to make the planes larger in the frame. Cheers, Des :-)”

“Tattoo shots are usually produced in colour, but as I was trying out my new monochrome camera I thought I'd give it a go and was pleased with the result. This is a pop-up tatoo studio at Sudeley Fantasy Forest Festival. I love pictures that tell a story, and I think this one does that. The client lying down on the left is having her first tattoo...she bravely allowed me in! I like the flow of the picture from the prone client to first one tattoo artist then the other, and finally to the arm being worked on. Of course you wouldn't normally leave a stray limb at the edge of the shot but I felt here it helped the story and gave the male tattooist a role. Just my view, of course.”

“This was taken on Thursday before the Fairford opening day a few days ago, from a field about a mile north of the runway. The Swiss Display team was rehearsing (makes a change from the Red Arrows and the white upper wings provide more contrast). I took several hundred photos but the closest images were at below tree level so I had to be quick. I have chosen this because they were between formation and it produced various views of the planes.”

I'd also crop one more stone up from the bottom which I think gives it a better aspect ration and also makes if feel a bit more intimate.I do really like the series of columns at the right which leads you to the two arches filled with green at the end.Cheers, Des :-)”

“Interesting picture, and well seen. I can see why you may be wondering about cropping, it seems a very 'busy' image, but then that maybe best conveys the location? Not sure myself, but if you were to crop, one suggestion would be to create two images by dividing it down the column just left of centre... although it's kind of good just as it is. This picture makes me stop and consider it... for me this shows it was successful. ”

“Dynamic action shot, a judge would likely say the highlights were blown but I don't mind because the sunlight often catches the finish on those planes and is quite bright anyway.

“Good to see you taking part here Saul, and look forward to seeing you on Zoom on Tuesday. I echo Des's thoughts. Years ago an experienced photography tutor looked at one of my efforts and said 'What is this a picture of?' I said it was sheep in a field around a tree and a manor house behind and a stone wall in front. He said, 'Too many 'ands'.' And this...and that... etc. You need a lead actor, and supporting cast. I often think of that. Same here...a wide aperture would make it a picture of the lifebelt and steps.”

“Got the heads up regarding some low level military action through the Mach Loop in Wales last week so set the alarm for an early start. Up on the hill watching F15's & F35's flying through the valleys by 8:30 in the morning.This image was taken at 2000th sec @ f4 and pretty much filled the frame at 200mm zoom, I wanted to use a slower shutter speed to blur the background but wanted a few in the bag beforehand. What I like about these exercises is that you get to see the aircrafts fully kitted out for action and with more interesting backdrops, although this particular day was a tad hazy and the photos did suffer so had to be tweaked slightly in Lightroom.Not sure how this particular subject will do in front of judges in either open or action subject rounds, be interested in hearing your thoughts.CheersRob”

“I like the idea of this, but I'm afraid for me it's not working. I think the problem is the positioning of the lifebouy and the background. The background is not working and I think because the lifebouy and steps are in the same plane you could shoot this wide open (F1.8 if possible) to blur the background which will focus on them to the exclusion of everything else. You could also shoot from a little lower so that the lifebouy is totally out of the water with just blurred building behind it. Obviously I would never have thought of that out in the field :-) but is seems to make sense to me now!”

“This is Sherry, the manager of Thunder-Rode, a motorbike shop and hotbed of MAGA memorabilia and activities in Kingman, Arizona. A former Playboy model (she claims) she and the proprietor Jack proudly fly the Confederate flag, attack all things 'woke' and generally campaign noisily for Trump and 'true American values. They were happy to pose for pictures for someone from the UK where, they say, we're going the same way, having kicked out 'that great man Boris Johnson'.”

“Good action shot. I am not absolutely sure the LHS player needs to go but worth trying and makinga comparison. I bet the lad with the red hat woud be well pleased with this picture and could claim he went on to score (even if he did not).Dave”

“This is an excellent capture. If I were a vole or mouse looking up, it would be terrifying to see this bird above.”

“Interesting I had not noticed the 27 until I read the comment above but now it jumps out at me. Yes, best to tone down or even clone out. Good impressist shot.Dave”

“Thanks Des. Big ducks these, and they move quick. I think you are right about the crop but I also rotated the image slightly to make the line through the eyes more horizontal. ”

“Haha, hadn't even noticed the 27! I'll look into toning it down, thanks.”

“Fabulous image of the duck. The shape is perfect as are the colours and details. Excellent capture David!For me though, the bird is looking slightly left, so I think the head needs to be more on the right hand side of the image looking towards the middle. For me, cropping off the RHS makes it a much stronger image.Cheers Des :-)”

“Excellent image, composition is great, especially the 3 boats. I think darkening the clouds might add a little something, and the bottom left catches my eye a little, perhaps darken or crop a little? But I'd be very happy for it to be mine ☺️”

“Hi DesI think this is a good picture, it gives off a realistic impression of what it is actually like to be in a snowy environment without being boring. Keeps me wondering, in a good way. Well done!”

“Well it works for me Des, I really like the almost abstract impressionist feel to the image with the strong diagonal line of slabs leading up to the end of the building in the distance and the little girl front and centre just adds to story of excitement with the snow.”

“One of the main Stockhom shopping streets on a very cold and snowy day without too many pedestrians about.I like that the only things that are sharp are some of the flakes of snow, but you can make out the little girl and her family. I love this, but am loathe to put it into the street round of the annual challenge as I'm not sure how many will get it.Slightly cropped from a 10mm (15mm equiv) at 1/25th" at f6.3 ISO 200.”

“I like it, Rob. Very strong mood there, works in mono, I like the composition. All the necessary elements to tell the story with no clutter. Probably would make a good print, I imagine. Nice capture! ”

“Not sure if the scaled down version does this justice but taken at Berry Head, Brixham and I was attracted by the the boats heading round towards Brixham hoping to reach port before the storm hits.Taken at 125th at f10 with a 24-120 zoomed in at 60mm then tweaked and in Lightroom & PhotoshopAs a matter of interest you can just see the top of the Berry Head lighthouse which apparently is the highest and shortest lighthouse in the UK being 190ft above sea level and only 16ft tall.CheersRob”

“Hi David, It's very interesting with the spider and I like the subject, although the left wing is much sharper than the right. I agree with John about the background, could you grunge it up, desaturate, or perhaps just add a heavyish vignette?Cheers, Des :-)”

“Hi David, excellent capture of the Goldfinch, I love the bird and its reflection, and I also like the brown leaf behind it. I'm not sure the top of the image is adding much, and a crop from the top so that the bird and the reflection are mirrored about the centre of the image seems to work better for me. There's also a couple of brighter areas on the left edge which catch my eye. I think that would tighten it all up into a cracking image!Cheers, Des :-)”

“Hi John, this is lovely, and I appreciate the negative space which I think grounds the owl nicely. I agree a little bit more space on the bottom may help. For me the bottom left corner of both the stump and the wing are just a little bit bright, and I think you could easily afford to darken the owl's shadow a bit more.Cheers, Des :-)”

“I have replaced my original offering for this month with this one. A shot from the practical evening at the club on Thursday. The image I saw was a combination of the owl and shadow, and the angle they formed. A mono conversion highlights that. Looking at it now I could maybe have left a bit more on the bottom.”

“Hmmm. Not sure about this. I do find the background distracting, though the spider is an interesting element. Perhaps a shallower DOF would have helped? ”

“Interesting. Well done to capture the butterfly with the spider like that! Unusual in a good way. Even though I found the background distracting at first it helps to give a sense of place. ”
